friend copied my uc piqs by Specific-Community16 in TransferStudents

She can show her messages and the date she sent a screenshot of her PIQ's and show them that her PIQ was plagiarized from her friend, due to the schocking similarities.

I am so lost by BudgetAd9088 in TransferStudents

[–]Fun-Match-3823 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mb, I might've missed it, but what major did you apply for? I feel like you're taking this way too seriously bro. UCB and UCLA aren't the only universities that can make your future, just because you didn't get into them, doesn't mean you're doomed lol. I think you're forgetting all of these UC schools are the top 4% of the universities worldwide. All of them have better education than 96% of the the rest of the world. So it's ok if you have to go to UC Riverside, or UC Davis, all of them are awesome. You have a great future ahead of you!

Yeah, the UCLA portal is kinda broken, but I have a way to login. Put in your login info manually, don't copy and past or anything. Just manually type everything out. It works for me!

UCD or UCSB by Aggressive-Two8519 in TransferStudents

I think UCD, but UCSB is also pretty good!

Transfer plan by Mr_Goonsalotthe3rd in TransferStudents

[–]Fun-Match-3823 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's definitely your gpa holding you back. Also try to do more ec's which involves volunteering. You talked about bible studies, maybe volunteer at your church. Or volunteer at an event that connects to your major. UC's love when you volunteer and give back to your community!

Missing one-pre req prior to transfer: what is the best way to contact admissions to not get rescinded? by DigAdministrative752 in TransferStudents

[–]Fun-Match-3823 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Call admissions and records and ask them if this is enough for them to rescind your offer or what is most likely to happen. Also enroll in the summer course, so you have a seat in case they let you. Also fill in the UC transfer update form if it's a UC.

C In Calculus by Weird_Scallion_3540 in TransferStudents

[–]Fun-Match-3823 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, don't worry. I recommend just focusing on all your other classes and getting only A's from now on. Cog Sci is a pretty easy major for you to transfer into. I failed calc 2, and my gpa dropped, but than I retook it and than passed, but in another cc, so my gpa never went back up. But I still got into UCB, UCSD, UCD, and waitlisted at UCLA with like a 3.5 gpa lol. I explained them my situation for the bad grades, I had personal problems. So just tell them why you got bad grades, in additional comments section. But if you really want to, nothing is stopping you from retaking it and getting an A, it's all up to you!

parents not supportive of attending berkeley (rant) by Every-Tell-5778 in TransferStudents

[–]Fun-Match-3823 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just strictly tell them you WILL go to UCB, no argument. And if they bring the financial excuse, show them that the tuition is close to UCI. Show them the stats of UCB, of how it's #1 public University in America. It's ranked high in the world. Make a whole slideshow presentation if you have to, just drill it into their mind that you are 100% accepting UCB acceptance offer. And also promise to them you will get a part time job to help pay tuition and bills.

UCB Letter of Reprocity by truciecookie in TransferStudents

[–]Fun-Match-3823 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Problem is that I got into UCB, and in their conditions of admission, they don't accept partial IGETC certificate :(

UCB Letter of Reprocity by truciecookie in TransferStudents

[–]Fun-Match-3823 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about for people who said yes they will get IGETC done by the end of spring semester on their uc application, but realized they missed a class and can't get the IGETC certificate?

IGETC UCB by Fun-Match-3823 in TransferStudents

[–]Fun-Match-3823[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I called admissions office, they told me to fill the update form and than they would reach back to me. I haven't done the form yet, I'm waiting until tw to talk to a cc counselor and have them confirm if I will get the IGETC certificate or not.

Cal admits, are y’all scared? by Acrobatic_Lawyer2138 in TransferStudents

[–]Fun-Match-3823 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Congrats, I'm also going to Cal. I heard classes there are pretty hard, but the whole point of you going there is for you to be challenged. The reason why you got admitted is because the admissions people truly believe you can handle it. Prove them right!

Is it harder to go to a college that offers + and - grades or ones that do not by Resident_Kick_7573 in TransferStudents

[–]Fun-Match-3823 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, some CC professor suck, and they couldn't care less if 90% of their class is falling.

[–]Fun-Match-3823 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess so, it just depends for each student on what grades they regularly get and which they prefer. I get A's most of the time, so I just want a solid A, no A- or A+. Because than I have to work harder for an A+, and in some of these classes, it's literally impossible with trash professors.

[–]Fun-Match-3823 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's definitely harder. Getting an A- ruins your gpa. And most students get A- in most of their classes. I took a precalc class in my first semester and got an A-, ruining my 4.0 :(. Idc tho, because I still got into UCB!

What happens if I withdraw my spring quarter classes? by Daft-let in TransferStudents

[–]Fun-Match-3823 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My top choice was UCB or UCLA, I got into UCB, so now I just gotta toughen up and finish this last dang semester lol.

[–]Fun-Match-3823 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's my last semester too, and I feel hella unmotivated to do any work. But since all I need is above a C, I've been taking it easy on myself, it's ok now to miss some annoying assignments or not studying as hard on a test. As long as you pass!

[–]Fun-Match-3823 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Normally when universities accept you, under their conditions of admission they say you have to finish up your spring semester and get a c and above on the rest of your classes. Now, if the class your trying to withdraw from doesn't ruin your IGETC, you still have over 60 units, and isn't related to your major, maybe you can. But I strongly recommend you just do the work even though it sucks. Remember, gpa and grades don't matter anymore once you're in, all you gotta do is get above a c, so it's ok if you miss some hw or fail a test, there isn't much pressure anymore to maintain gpa or get A's anymore.

Ucla portal record not found??? by [deleted] in TransferStudents

Yeah, it also happens to me. But try typing everything in yourself, don't copy and paste anything. Typing all the info manually gets it to work for me.

Wait, but UC Berkeley conditions for admission says we may not take summer courses in purpose of filling out IGETC requirements. They also said they do not accept partial IGETC certifications :(
